Sermonette . 1 Edited by Harriet R. MacDonald "If yo love me, keep my com mandments." John: 14-16. It Is necessary to endeavor to live according to the commandments In the smallest details. We must "shun evils becauso they are sins against God, and do good because It is of God and from God." (Swedenborg). "God is love," and nothing can come from Him which Is not good. But when we disobey tho command ments, wo pervert the good we re ceive from Him, and evil results. The Lord always leaves us In freedom to obey or disobey His laws and so Sppakinq f Weather- I hi Chdrtes Fitihwh Ttilmm 1 ; oftkU$.WedtherBumu Cloudburst Caused By Uprushlng Wurm Currents of Air; Falls , ;: ,. . When Current Ceases A standard dictionary defines a cloudburst as "a sudden copious rain fall, as lftho whole cloud, had been precipitated at one time." As a matter of fact, If a cloud of the largest size were, by a miracle, precipitated at ono time, coming down at tho maximum speed of fall ing raindrops, It would not cause a torrential shower, such as la com monly described, as a cloudburst; but to choose between good and evil. By j of course tho comparatively small the innumerable choices which we amount of water In the elouds was make in our dally lives, we determine j not realized by our ancestors, who oeiiBvtu vuttb viuuuts ttumeuiueti uc- tually burst and discharged' their en- our life hereafter, wnen wo ais obey, and so choose rvtl, we become spiritually sick and may at last be come dead to all good. This is tho only death wo need fear.' In the culture of the spiritual me the church stands ready to help us. To bo sure, church-going Is not In dispensable, but the church where the Word Is understood and wnere lessons of daily life aro drawn from it can be of Inestimable servico to us. Many feel that tney nave no time for religion, thinking of It as something apart from life, but, "All religion has relation to life, and the life of religion is to do gooa." a. h. d. tiro watery load at once upon tho earth, This Idea Is learnedly set forth in a quaint little German work by Christian Wolse, published In 1701, as well as In many later works. The earlier scientific attempts to account for tho tremendous down pours to which the name "cloud burst" is ' applied assumed that tho water was duo to rapid condensation in the vortox of a tornado or water spout, and hence the name "water-1 spout" was formerly often applied to a cloudburst, even when.lt occurred far from any body of water. The ralufall attending a tornado la doubtless .sometimes - of cloudburst intensity, but the majority of clpud- bursts- are. now believed to be the product of. thunderstorms. ' Violent ,. uprushlng. currents of air always oc-. cur at the front of an advancing thunderstorm. Moisture In- the air drawn into the storm by these cur rents condenses as It rises, on ac count of the cooling of the air by expansion,, but tho. upward blast is so -strong that for a tune the water is prevented from falling as rain, . If tho rising ..currents are weakened at some point, a. large accumulation of water is. permitted. to fall at one. time. Thia' is especially likely to oc cur whon a. traveling thunderstorm, which Is fed by rising streams of air from overheated ground, passes over the cooler surface of a mountain, so that the supply of warm air Is tem porarily cut off. This would explain tho special frequency of cloudbursts in mountainous regions, NEXT: What Is "St. Elmo's fire?" LUMBER REPORT PORTLAND, Ore...
